14.1.3 The User Interface
Visual Basic 5 is the language that has been chosen to write the user
interface code. The basic design for the user interface will be modelled on the
Windows Explorer. That is the application window will consist of two panes, the
left hand pane showing a directory tree and the right hand pane showing a listing
of the contents of the currently selected directory. The application is to be drag
and drop compliant with the Windows Explorer, enabling files to be dragged
between the ext2 explorer to the Windows explorer (this includes areas such as
the desktop).
